I was visiting Guelph for four days and had researched ahead for a nice lunch spot. This Cafe was also subsequently recommended by two others locally. I had an enjoyable lunch with a Lin-time friend who knows it well. The food and service were great and I love having the bookstore attached plus the indie cinema. Lovely!

Oct 12-2026 We were greeted promptly at the door then seated at a nice table with a window. Refreshing sparkling water was served within a minute. There were 5 of us in the party and we were there to celebrate both a 25th birthday and Thanksgiving. We were allowed to order from the Chef’s special or the Restaurant Menu. Three of us enjoyed turkey special and enjoyed it, grandson had a smasburger, he did not enjoy the fries. Our other granddaughter enjoyed swordfish. Overall we’d rate our evening well and would be happy to return.

The menu has so many unique and varied items it was difficult to make choices. The steak tartar/bone marrow was excellent and a very generous portion. Mains were venison osso buco and eggplant and both were excellent. Service was spot on.
